The Mouth of Red River.

"What shall be done for the
mouth of Red river to secure navi-
CATION all the year round ?" This
is a question that has been dis
cussed for years, but the discussion
has yet to produce beneficial re-
suits to those dependent upon the
river for means of transportation.
We are beginning to think that
the work as carried on by the q.
S. engineers at the mouth of Red
river is sham and q fraud, and
the only persistent labor performed
BY this kid-gloved gentry is that
of drawing their salaries at regular
periods. A story is related to us
of blunt Red river captain, whose
boat was stuck in the mud, when
the engineer came steaming up in
his little launch from the rendez-
vous at the mouth, and became an
interested locker on. After watch
ing the captains exertions to get
his boat out of the bog, the en-
gineer finally remarked, "Well,
this is h-Il; amt it p To this
cheerful remark the captain grufly
replied, Eyes, d--n you; and you
are one of the devils that helped
to make it" We do not know that
the captain is altogether right in
holding that the engineers help to
obstruct navigation at the mouth
of Red river. but we suppose he
meant that they were responsible
for not having performed the labor
necessary to keep it open. Now,
it is an undisputed fact that the
Red River Transportation Co. had
charge of this work for a season
and gave us uninterrupted naviga-
ton for a whole year, and it is
said they received much less pay
for their labor than is paid by the
government for the same work
now. It is also said that the same
company now offers to do the same
work for much less than is at
present paid by the government
for this purpose. The attention of
our Congressman is called to this
matter, and it should receive de-
cided overhauling. If nothing
more is done, it would be well to
have the engineers spend equally
as much time in actual work to
earn their salaries as it is said they
spend in fitting about from place
to place in search of pleasure.

The friends and family of Jeffer-
son Davis are greatly alarmed over
his health. 1t is reported that his
condition, owing to his old wound
received during the Mexican war
is critical. He is very feeble and
has been confined to his bed for
four or five days. The physicians
in attendance do not believe Mr..
Davis will be able to return to
Behavior, Miss, alive. His family
are at his bedside and his death is
momentarily expected.

The Colfax CHRoNIcuE wants soma ops
to explain why the Republican press d
the State is supporting Gov. McEnery
The explanation is easy. It ia not Read
the Standard, Pelican and st. Mary Re.
view. esteemed contemporary Times.
Democrat.
The st. Mary Review is an sIn-
dependent" paper, if the I'D,
which also flies the same device
along side of it's Democracy, can
tell US what that means. If you
want to count these sort we can
name half q score on your side.
But for the sake of brevity we
will only name the City Item,
Donaldsonville Chief, Terrebonne
Times and Free Press, as the Re
publican papers that are support
ing McEnery. We do not happen
to have the Standard at hand, but
doubt very much that it is support
ing Nichols. The following ex-
tract from the Pelican shows con-
clusively that the I'D. has that
paper in the wrong category
Let Republicans remember that Gov.
Nichols was the central figure in the
Democratic party at the time when their
right OF suffrage was the most tramplod
upon, when ballot box stufing and mob
violence was at its height in this State,
and that he rode into power and place
upon the wings of corruption, impurity
and treachery. Let them remember that
around him was formed that nucleus,
which, wrested by fraud and intimida-
ton, the State of Louisiana from the
Republican party. And remembering
more determined, NJ ~ zealous than
ever, to defeat the poIilI5al aspirations Of
Gen. Nichols and his party.
